Composer Joseph Bishara has proven himself to be a master of horror movie sounds, lending his talents to a host of notable movies including Insidious, Insidious: Chapter 2, The Conjuring, The Conjuring 2, V/H/S/ Viral, Annabelle, The Curse of La Llorona and Annabelle Comes Home. He also played the Lipstick-Face Demon in Insidious, and Bathsheba in The Conjuring!
On the road to Halloween, Bishara got together with The Section Quartet to perform the Insidious score, and Bloody Disgusting is excited to exclusively debut that footage today.
Bishara explained to us this week, “I had been talking about a live reading of the Insidious score with The Section Quartet, musicians I work with regularly for some time. Later into the pandemic, as the conversation turned to remote recording, this seemed a good way to explore both, and if nothing else a reason to make music together again.”
Joseph also recently released “The Spiderweb Meditations“. Described by Joseph as “music for active or passive listening”, the album is comprised of five darkly flavored and emotionally immersive soundscapes from the mind that bought you the scores to some of the biggest and most successful worldwide franchises.
To celebrate the release of “The Spiderweb Meditations”, Joseph Bishara partnered with Zombie Joe’s Underground Theatre Group to create a series of visual companion pieces to each of the five tracks made by projecting animated photographs of spiderwebs Joseph shot around his house and projecting them on to human canvases. You’ll find those videos below.
Beginning his career as guitarist and keyboardist for the L.A. industrial metal band Drown, Bishara segued to soundtrack work on Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Heavy Metal 2000, and John Carpenter’s Ghosts of Mars. Since that time, he has scored films including The Conjuring, The Conjuring 2, Annabelle, The Prodigy, The Other Side of the Door, The Curse of La Llorona, Annabelle Comes Home and many others, often appearing onscreen as a creature performer.
Bishara also scored the Trench creature sequence in the recent hit Aquaman.
Bishara’s music production work includes the soundtrack for the cult musical film Repo! The Genetic Opera and its successor The Devil’s Carnival, as well production, programming and remix contributions for artists such as Tech N9ne, Gvllow, Marilyn Manson, Bauhaus, Rasputina, Danzig, Jane’s Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, Megadeth, and Prong. Perhaps best known for his work scoring the horror franchise Insidious, Bishara earned the Fangoria Chainsaw Award for Best Score on that film. He has since composed the music for its sequels Insidious Chapter 2, Insidious Chapter 3 and Insidious: The Last Key. His upcoming projects include scores for the films The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, Malignant, and Shrine.
